KnowingUnknowing

This is an improvised triptych for dance and amplified guitar (Helen Kindred dancer, Benjamin Dwyer guitar, prepared guitar, bowed guitar, 2016). Inspired by various texts by Samuel Beckett, Ted Hughes and Martin Heidegger, KnowingUnknowing explores the liminal spaces between the body and the zones it occupies, the conscious and the unconscious, movement and stillness, sound and silence, sight and gesture. This film version of KnowingUnknowing is the result of an unedited, one-off improvised performance with dancer, guitarist and improvising filmmaker Pete Gomes. The film features on the Farpoint Recordings label in a CD/DVD entitled KnowingUnknowing.
